Body Transformation: Dustin Is Determined To Get Big Or Dye Mirin'! From BBcom.

Teen Transformation Of The Week

Dustin used college baseball conditioning as a lifting launch pad. See how Steve Cook's Big Man On Campus Trainer helped Dustin build 39 pounds of muscle!

Name: Dustin Dye
Email: Dustindyeiphone@gmail.com
Location: Tallahassee, Florida

Why I decided to transform

I decided to transform when I arrived at college my freshman year. I was taller than the average guy, but as I looked around, I couldn't find anyone as skinny as me. Up to that point, I hardly ever picked up weights, and when I did, I didn't know what I was doing.
Fall conditioning for baseball was coming up and I knew I was going to be in trouble. I was extremely nervous and by far the weakest guy there on the first day. During the next month, I gave it my all and looked forward to lifting even though I was embarrassed at my weakness. I was determined to get bigger and stronger.
I was known as the skinny kid who ate a lot growing up and was always asked where it all went. I thought I would never gain weight, but I managed to gain two pounds during the month of fall conditioning. Muscle or not, I was motivated.

When fall workouts ended, I was addicted to lifting. As a college athlete, I knew working out would help my physique and performance on the field, so I committed to transform my body. I started following Steve Cook's Big Man On Campus daily workout plan from Bodybuilding.com the day after conditioning, which was 18 months ago, and haven't looked back.

Before /// 140 lbs

After /// 179 lbs

AGE 18 / HEIGHT 6'3" / BODY FAT 8%

AGE 19 / HEIGHT 6'3" / BODY FAT 10%

How I accomplished my goals

I haven't accomplished all of my goals yet, but I'm proud of the progress I made in a short amount of time. The biggest key to my success is consistency. I made the gym a priority and own the place when I walk through the door. I don't care what people think or why they stare at me.
I noticed an unreal edge on the field because of my increased strength. I'm happy with the current state of my body, but I won't stop pushing forward. My transformation has been an experiment of trial and error. I learned so much and will always know what it takes to stay in shape and what advice to give others so they can do the same.
Bodybuilding.com served as a large tool for my success. I followed several trainers on the site and order my supplements from the company. Steve Cook is my inspiration as a person and competitor. Jeff Seid and Zyzz follow shortly behind Steve and represent the ideal physique I'm shooting for.

What aspect challenged me the most

Dieting challenged me most. I'm not a morning person, so it took awhile to get breakfast in check. Cutting out small things like soda are tough at first, but after a month I forgot they existed. I haven't had a sip of soda in two years.

My future fitness plans

I don't have any plans to compete because I'm nowhere near ready, but I might one day. I just enjoying lifting and can't ever see myself stopping. Lifting helped me as an athlete tremendously. It would be cool to compete and be sponsored one day, but that would come after my athletic career.

"Don't go by what the scale says. There are many factors that can be misleading."

Suggestions for aspiring transformers

• Attitude is everything and helps you overcome slow progress.
• Don't go by what the scale says. There are many factors that can be misleading.
• Create a routine and stick to it.
• Get a gym partner who's stronger than you and can push you.

How Bodybuilding.com helped me reach my goals

Bodybuilding.com got me started and provided endless information to aid my journey. I read articles and got lost in the site for hours at a time. The daily online trainers are great and I got my friends hooked on them. I purchase my supplements on Bodybuilding.com and the customer service is second to none.

BBcom Featuring: Muscle-Building Chest and Shoulders Workout | Hunter Delfa

| Hunter Delfa's Chest and Shoulders Workout |
 I have found that training chest and shoulders together is an effective technique for building overall upper-body muscle. The ultimate goal of this workout is to gain that quality, lean muscle that we all strive for—through lots of volume! Some exercises call for high reps, some are heavier sets with fewer reps, and there are dropsets, as well. You'll start by working upper chest with lots of incline work and move down to the lower chest. The second half of the workout hits shoulders, and by the time you're finished, you should feel fatigued. I like to insert this workout into my routine about once every two weeks. Let's get to work! 

| Incline Barbell Press | 
We'll start with the incline barbell bench press. You'll notice in the video I'm not going all the way down, and I'm not coming all the way up either. That keeps the tension on the upper chest the entire time and keeps your arms from taking over.

 | Close-Grip Incline Dumbbell Press/Incline Single-Dumbbell Press |
 For the close-grip incline dumbbell press, I use one dumbbell in the video because I didn't have the dumbbells I wanted here; usually, I use two dumbbells. Sometimes you have to improvise in the gym. You'll see I raise the dumbbell in an arc motion, rather than straight up, in order to get an extra squeeze on my upper chest and focus on the inner pec, as well. | Incline Dumbbell Fly | You'll probably notice that I make a slight twist of my wrist at the top of the motion on incline dumbbell flyes. This is also a trick for getting an extra squeeze, as well as forcing more blood into the chest. Crazy how one small motion can make all the difference, but it does!

 | Dumbbell Fly Press |
 I'm a big fan of this movement because I really like coming down on the flyes and feeling that stretch as well as the squeeze from the press at the top. With this exercise, start like you're doing a flat dumbbell fly, but at the top of the motion, finish it as if it was a press. So, at the midrange, twist your wrists before finishing with a press.



 | Machine Chest Press | 
You'll do 3 total sets for this exercise. On the first set, start with 6 reps, drop the weight and do 12 reps, then drop the weight again and finish with 20 reps. I prefer to do these on the machine, but if your gym does not have a chest press machine, you can use dumbbells, cable presses, or the bench press instead. If you watch closely, you'll notice that I'm keeping constant tension on the muscle throughout the set.

 | Single-Arm Cable Fly |
 For these, do 10 reps on one arm while holding the opposite arm at the end position of the fly. Do 10 with the opposite arm, and when you're finished, repeat for 8, 6, 4, and 2 reps per side, going back and forth, with no rest between. When you complete the final two reps, superset with 10 cable chest presses.

 | Cable Chest Press |
 I like to do an isometric hold on these because it forces blood into the pecs. This is the last chest exercise, so you need to give it your all to get everything you can out of it. Repeat this entire superset three times with about a minute between supersets. |Smith Machine Behind-The-Neck Press | I recommend doing these on a Smith machine over doing them with a regular barbell to reduce your chance of injury. Keep your head straight and look straight on—do not look down and do not angle your neck down either. You want to come down to where your elbows are at 90 degrees and keep your grip no farther than shoulder-width apart.

The Truth About Vaccines Featuring: Be Brave! (Part 3) - Vaccine Safety Negligence | Del Bigtree at TTAC Live 2019 in Anaheim, CA and 6 Ways to Find the Best Pediatrician for Your Kids- JPCKIDS

Welcome back! This is the 3rd and final part to Del Bigtree's TTAC Live 2019 presentation. In this last installment, Del shines a light on vaccine safety. We are told that the vaccination program is implemented for the greater good of human society, but at what cost?

Science" tells us that it's safe and that the number of incidents is negligible to the point that it's recommended for universal use. However, when you take a look at 2 independent studies done by Harvard and the FDA, respectively, they both came to the same conclusion that only 1% of vaccine injuries and/or deaths are actually reported. Meaning, the number that we have actual data that is publicly available for all to see represents only 1% of what is actually going on out there. 

To put things into statistical perspective, we know for a fact that 533 children are dying to vaccines in 2018. If that is 1% of what is reported, then the actual total could be as much as 53,000. How many children's lives lost annually is too much? Shouldn't 533 lives be more than enough? Where do we draw the line? 

 Del Bigtree, producer of Vaxxed, was an Emmy Award-winning producer on the daytime talk show The Doctors, for six years. He has a background both as a filmmaker and an investigative medical journalist. Del has been traveling the nation, meeting with politicians, and standing with parents in their fight to maintain our freedom of choice. He is the host of HighWire Talk, a show that finds the answers to the questions everyone else is afraid to ask.

6 Ways to Find the Best Pediatrician for Your Kids- JPCKIDS

By: Nathen White It is a challenging task to find the best pediatrician for your kid. Pediatricians should be good enough to take care of the child’s health until adolescence. There are some quality factors that parents look for the children’s clinic when they have to choose one.

Find out the factors that determine whether a pediatrician is a good fit for your family. Here is a list of tips to choose the best pediatrician.

1. Consider Comfort levels.

Choose a pediatrician who has a good understanding, patience and comfort levels to talk and identify parent’s concerns regarding their child’s health. Children’s physician and parent relationships are considered relevant in taking care of your child’s medical fitness. A pediatrician should appreciate parents encroachment in a child’s care as they are the first to see signs and symptoms of their kid's health. In turn, Parents should be able to learn and understand from the doctor’s explanation of child health care. A good pediatrician should communicate to the parent in detail about the conditions and requirements like a family member.

2. Consider recommendations.

Other than certification and specialty, it is best to go for personal recommendations from family friends or colleagues when searching for a Pediatrician. Inquire to them on the facilities and feedback about the physician and their approach and capabilities. There is also a lot of reviews posted on the web about parents experience and recommendation from their own personal experience on the internet which may also help.

3. Staff Service.

It is also to consider the services of staff as this may be another important factor in the medical field. Most of the time a better reception and better behavior with children is very crucial in a clinical atmosphere. So nonmedical staff in a clinic are equally important as the medical staff to create an ambiance of friendliness.

4. Prevention-focused

As the saying goes "Prevention is Better Than Cure", it is intelligent to choose a doctor who oversees the possible health issues and prepare your family to avoid health issues in the future. There are preventive vaccinations for a child that should be properly administered at the proper time. Such pediatricians help you take proper medication at the right time bringing in quality health to your children.

5. Compatibility

It is important to evaluate whether the pediatrician's method of child care stands close to your expectations in the approach of treatment procedures, consultation, support and medication. Taking care of the emergencies in the absence of a doctor is also an important factor to be considered in choosing your clinic.

6. Check for Speciality

Choosing a pediatrician is a very tough task. It is good to have an understanding of the specialty and experience of the concerned pediatrician. Checking the degree of doctor is not a fault as it helps you gain trust in his or her treatments. Treatment procedures, parenting approaches, and physician availability as all are equally important in a child’s health. A pediatrician should be kind, compassionate, patient, a good listener and open to discussions about your views and concerns freely as it is the very important primary step in identifying the nature of a child or the disease.

Children at various stages need treatment and communication is the most important factor in the treatment of children. Children’s response to treatment, their adherence to timely medications are all as important as the medicine itself. Children’s clinic is thus one of the most difficult ones to choose in the medical field and it makes it more difficult as you are the one who is choosing it for your children.

 JPC Kids is Jonesboro Pediatric clinic and the leading Children's clinic in Jonesboro AR. Our clinic is well-equipped and has skilled pediatricians for children's complete healthcare. We provide monthly vaccination schedules for the patients.

The victim was transported to the hospital in serious condition. L.M.P.D. Fugitive unit was contacted to assist homicide in locating the suspect. Intelligence was developed that the suspect may be with an associate and a description of the vehicle this associate drives.

Self-Defense Advice - Be Ready To Adapt And Act

By: G J Thomas In the first instance in any dangerous confrontation you should try to run away. Escape, evade, SURVIVE. If things get physical then you should expect to sustain an injury of some sort, even if it's just a scratch or a bruise. Running away means no scratches and no bruises. Do not be too proud to run.

All self-defense training should put plenty of focus on running away, because by running away you stand the best chance of survival. That's just the way it is. Humans have the "fight or flight" mentality built-in, but you should reverse those words and think about the flight before the fight. If you are fortunate enough to see a good escape route running away is definitely the smartest thing you can do, whether you feel cowardly or not. Which would you prefer to be, a sensible living person or a brave dead one? No brainer.

When confronted by an attacker think, adapt, and act fast

In any confrontational situation you should expect the worst and be prepared for it, that is why you train yourself, but you should also expect the unexpected. Learning to escape from a knife attack is one thing, but what if your assailant has friends coming around the corner just as you turn to run away? What if you manage to stop your attacker and knock him down, only to slip and fall as you make your escape? In seconds he is on top of you, and you are in a more dangerous position than before. Be alert, be aware, and be prepared to adapt to any situation and use any advantage you can find.

Any training that you choose should incorporate methods to deal with unexpected twists and crazy scenarios. The simple but effective techniques that you can teach yourself fairly quickly will work in a lot of situations - that is why these techniques are taught, but at some point you may find yourself in a far less straight-forward confrontation where you need a little bit extra. Life throws random difficulties at us all the time, so it's important to be as ready as you can for something to happen that makes the dangerous scenario you are in even worse.

A distraction could be the key to your escape

If somebody nearby shouts and it momentarily distracts your attackers you can use this to your advantage. If a crowd of people turns the corner and starts walking your way should you shout for help? A police siren in the distance may provide enough of a distraction for you to turn and run. Expect to be shocked, expect to be scared, and be prepared to make quick, smart decisions. Taking advantage of an unexpected event might make all the difference.

Think about what you do, where you go, and who you go with, and try imagining what you would do if two men with knifes attacked you. Or maybe they grab your companion and threaten her. How about the difference between being attacked in an open space versus a tight, cramped alleyway? Maybe you work in a shop and are worried about somebody jumping over the counter and what you should do. Put yourself in complicated situations and think of ways that it could get even worse. Picture yourself there, and use your training to work out how you would survive.

• Is there anything you can do to distract your attacker?
• What do you do if your attackers are a group of females?
• What can you do if you are carrying an injury and can barely walk?
• What do you do if your assailants surround you?

Always remember, the key to every situation is to SURVIVE. You are not trying to look good, you are not there to be brave, your only intention is to survive by any means necessary. If you are in a position where somebody is threatening you with a knife or gun, then your attacker is demonstrating that he is prepared to KILL YOU if you do not comply. You need to know what to do and you need to be prepared to act quickly and decisively. If your survival means running away then do it, but if you are forced to protect yourself, or to fight off an attacker, then ensure that you are as prepared as you possibly can be. Learn more......

The Rock Almighty Devotional, Praise, and Worship with John Schlitt and Relationships with No Barriers

Relationships with No Barriers

Creflo Dollar

When we examine the way we’ve learned to form relationships, many of us don’t realize that we learned wrong. The world takes unequal relationships for granted and doesn’t question hierarchal separations between men and women. This robs us of achieving our whole potential as children of God. True biblical equality means that all believers stand on equal ground before Him.

God originally created men and women as equals, and the patriarchal spirit we see in the world today goes against His original plan. But the Holy Spirit has been made available to everyone regardless of race, gender, age, or social or economic status. The world makes distinctions between people, but there is no distinction in Christ. Because of His grace, we’re all one in the Father’s eyes.

What we’ve learned, we need to unlearn and replace with the Word of God. When we begin this process, we may be amazed. Each of us has a calling on our lives and, because of what Jesus did, we’re now free to pursue that calling. We claim freedom from the curse of domination by faith in what God has promised us.

When we study the Bible to learn what God says about biblical equality, we see that His Son came to remove all barriers between people. Glass ceilings will be shattered, and both men and women will be freed from the earthly expectations that hold them back. Life under this type of grace is nothing like we’ve ever experienced before, and it’s certainly not as burdensome. Jesus has broken down all walls between us and restored the gender equality sin stole from us.

Prayer:

Dear Lord, You made a way through Your Son to take away all barriers between people and re-establish the relationship between You and Your children. Your Word allows us to rise above any limitations and frees us to truly shine as Christians. Thank You for what at You did. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Acts 2:1-11

All We Need Is God’s Presence

by Creflo Dollar 

Life is a series of choices. Sometimes we choose wisely, other times foolishly. God made us free moral agents to allow us to decide for ourselves on one of the most important choices of all—whether to focus on our problems, or on Him. Focusing on Jesus Christ instead of our current situation allows us to sense His presence in our lives.
Some people turn to earthly sources to find the answers to their problems, but God’s wisdom is infinite. When we shut out all distractions and study His Word, we discover solutions we’d never think of on our own. God is on our side and He wants us to succeed. It’s impossible to stand in His presence and not feel perfect peace. “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7).
Even when we turn our eyes away from Him, He’s still waiting for us to acknowledge Him. He’s always talking to us, but we’re not always listening. In the world, there are plenty of distractions that keep us from paying attention to what He’s trying to tell us. Tuning out all the noise allows us to hear an encouraging message from Him. “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalm 16:11).
Daily living can put us in some pretty scary situations. If we didn’t have God in our lives, we’d be in real trouble. In the Old Testament when Joseph was put in prison, God was with him. The end result was that Joseph prospered and succeeded because of God’s presence. “But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it. The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper” (Genesis 39:21-23).


Joshua was another example of how God’s presence causes success, regardless of the circumstances. “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee” (Joshua 1:5). Both Joseph and Joshua had a choice of whether to trust in God, or in their circumstances; their decision showed godly wisdom. When we acknowledge God’s love for us and place our trust in Him instead of in ourselves, we position ourselves to receive the same promise that they received.
The most important thing we could ever do is to get born again. Accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior allows His Holy Spirit to come and live in us permanently. This ensures that we’ll never be alone. “…For He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!”](Hebrews 13:5, AMPC).
God wants to be with us. Welcoming Him into our lives gives us access to someone who will always be there for us. His presence is all we need.

Let's Get Loud! Training To Cheer!

Admittedly, I was never on the cheerleading squad in high school. When you've been playing piano since you were 3-years old, and you have a strange talent to be able to play any song you hear on just about any instrument, you find that the marching band calls your name much stronger than the cheerleading team.
But as I stood in the stands, playing glories to the Walton Raider (and also sneaking magazines and snacks into the bandstand in the bell of my saxophone), I always admired the team of perfectly synchronized girls jumping, flipping and dancing in front of me. I'll be the first to say it. Cheerleading IS a sport.
And, like any sport, to try out for, make and succeed on the cheerleading team, one needs to train for it! So, let's go!
One mistake I think a lot of girls make when they want to get into cheerleading is purposely not nourishing themselves in order to look thin and tiny in the cheerleading uniform.
First of all, no matter who you are, no matter where your muscles are, you are going to look great in a cheerleading uniform. The large white shoes naturally slim the legs, the mid-length skirt shapes the butt, and the cut on the shirt brings emphasis to ... "the female zone." So no matter who you are, YOU WILL LOOK GOOD in a cheerleading uniform.
Second, not every girl on the squad can be the "fly" (the girl who gets thrown in the air by the other girls). Most of the girls need to do the throwing and the catching. And if you want to throw A WHOLE PERSON you better be strong and well nourished.
Third, I will vouch from experience that "not eating" will do one thing for you-it will make you flabby! Sooner or later you will give in to food, and when you do, your metabolism is going to be so slowed by not eating that you will have to go through an entire refeeding process just to retrain it. And you don't have time for that, because you've got to train and be ready to support your team. So do something for your team—and support yourself!
And finally, if you've ever looked at some of the strongest, fittest and most gymnastic athletes (for example, just watch a few minutes of Olympic gymnastics or track and field), you will see that they are not emaciated. They are healthy and muscular. And you need to be, too.

Nutrition

OK, with that rant over, what can you do, nutritionally, to be ready for cheerleading? I am going to make the assumption here that you are going to be practicing every weekday after school.
Here's a sample of what you could do on a daily basis to be ready for a comprehensive post-school practice.
Breakfast:

• 1/2 cup oatmeal
• 1/2 cup cottage cheese, low fat
• 1/2 banana
• 1 tbsp peanut butter
• Lots of water and maybe a plain coffee with a little low-fat milk

Mid Morning Snack:

• 2 fat free string cheeses
• An apple or a slice of Ezekiel bread

Lunch:

• Sandwich made from 2 slices Ezekiel bread with 4-6 oz. chicken a few slices of avocado and non-fat condiments of your choice
• Carrots, broccoli, and other assorted veggies
• Non-fat dressing (Walden Farms is a good choice)
• A fruit of your choice or a sample size cliff bar

Before Practice:

• PowerBar or other nutrition bar with about 30g carbs and 10-20g protein

After Practice:

• 8-16 oz. Gatorade
• A few slices of low-sodium turkey (to tide you over until dinner)

Dinner With The Parents:

• 1 sweet potato
• 4-6 oz. of chicken
• 1 oz. of almonds
• A giant serving of cooked broccoli
• Glass of milk

Before Bed:

• 1 Greek yogurt (6 oz) with 1 tbsp peanut butter mixed in

Does it seem like a ton of food? Yes. But you are going to be burning a lot of calories at practice, so it's best to get them in from clean sources. The main thing to remember is that at every major meal you want to have a source of complex carbohydrate. Before and after your workout, you want to have some more simple carbohydrates, and the sort that will sit well on your stomach.
You want to have a little protein at every meal, as well. Also, make sure to get at least 2 servings of fruits in a day, as they provide a lot of antioxidants to keep your immunity strong.
Finally, as a woman, you need to have several servings of dairy in your diet every day; calcium not only promotes already healthy bones, but studies have shown that it also supports women who want to maintain a healthy weight!

Training

Now, practice isn't going to start for a few weeks, so what can you do until then in order to prepare for tryouts? That's right. You can be training. You are going to need to train three difference aspects of your body: your strength, your flexibility, and your endurance.

Endurance

Let's start with the easiest one. Since you will be out there cheering for several hours, you are going to need to have the physical capacity to keep going the whole time. So you need to be sure to do some endurance training frequently.
Running, elliptical trainer, bike, Stairmaster, any of these will do, but the best choice for you is going to be something that mimics the "ups and downs" of a football game. If you have access to a gym, or if you have a DVD player and a large room, put on a Tae Bo or cardio kickboxing DVD. I guarantee you'll get your heart rate up, and you'll have a great time doing it.
One way to test your fitness for cheerleading is to do what we runners called "the talk test." You don't want to be so out of breath that you can't say a short sentence. If you are at that point, you are either training too hard, or you need to improve your overall endurance before you try to push yourself to that upper limit.
Remember: one of the main parts of cheering is the part where you GET LOUD! So you've got to teach your body to be able to speak even while you are working out.
Trust me: if you train your body to breathe, when it comes time to perform, you will continue breathing. And speaking. And cheering! Back to the cardiovascular exercise: if you can get in this more intense cardiovascular training 3-5 times per week, and on the other 2-4 days, if you can go for a nice brisk walk, you'll be good to go!
I should probably add that if you know your cheerleading routines, doing them for cardio would be perfectly acceptable. Just be sure that your heart rate is elevated, but not overworking, and you'll find that practice literally makes perfect!

Flexibility

Secondly, you need to work on your flexibility. Cheerleaders are constantly doing splits, flips, etc. The best time to stretch, in my opinion, is after you do cardiovascular exercise. Your muscles are warm, and you need to stretch anyway.
I highly recommend yoga as a form of stretching for two reasons. First, the yoga poses have been practiced for centuries and have been proven to promote flexibility and second, it gives you a set program to follow. And when you have a set program to follow, you are not going to skimp out.
Yes, it will take time to perfect, but with practice, you'll soon be bending like Gumby on a hot August day. If you have access to a gym or a yoga studio, going to a class can be a great way to learn more poses and to have your flexibility critiqued by someone who will help you extend it.
Having more flexibility will not only make you more gymnastic, but it will also protect you from injury. Your muscles will be more supple and able to bend with you as you cheer. Make sure to keep your stretches just before the point of pain; you don't want to hurt yourself just getting prepared.

Weight Training

Thirdly, and this is what you are expecting, you've got to get strong. I would recommend lifting 3 times per week. When you start practice, you should probably continue to lift two times per week. You'll be doing lifting at practice (of people in this case) so you don't need to lift at home as much.
Also, the volume of your lifts, once you are in season, should be reduced. Depending on how demanding your practices are, you will have to decide in the reduction for yourself.
I found, as a runner, that out of season I would usually do three sets of my lifts three times a week, but in season I would just do each lift for one set, with the exception of isometric (body weight) exercises, which I would do two or three times. Because I was working out so much, I didn't want to hinder my athletic performance by overtraining.
For Cheerleading, you will want to focus on the upper body strength, so I would do 2 days of upper work and one day of lower. Be sure to rest adequately, but not extensively, between sets. You want to feel strong enough to do your next set, but still a little tired from your last one.
Here's an example of what I'd do.

Day 1

Warm Up:

• Warm up with sit-ups, walking lunges, step-ups, and glute raises on the floor...........keep reading......

Everyone is fighting some battle or struggling with something, be it mentally, physically, emotionally, or financially, but native Idahoan and Team USA Weightlifter Kristi Brewer knows the key to finding balance in life is the simpler, the better. Proving it's never too late to find success in something new, Brewer has become a powerhouse for her sport and a true role model for facing any challenge with patience and determination. Learn how this mother of two bounced back from a 10-year hiatus from fitness to become a competitive weightlifter and Olympic hopeful, and why sometimes doing something just for yourself is the best way to help everybody else.

How Many Repetitions

By: Daniel Green Theoretically, one could justify the single rep system for building the largest muscle size. Some weightlifters are after explosive strength and use that system. But such a system does not serve the bodybuilder’s needs. The competitive weightlifter; who attempts to fire off as much muscle fibre as possible within the few seconds it takes to complete a single rep, will not gain the overabundance of muscle tissue that the top bodybuilders strive for. For muscle building purposes it is far better to use a lower percentage of muscle fibres each repetition, but with a higher overall count. In this way the nervous system is forced to recruit as many additional muscle fibres as possible. You need to fatigue the fibres with repetitions, overloading your muscles regularly with repeated sets of 6 – 12 reps, and progressively overloaded (moderately increasing weight resistance whenever possible). This will give you the kind of body development you’ve always wanted.

Volume is important, since it serves two purposes. It contributes to plumping up your muscles cells individually, and it helps you to build new capillaries (which come as a result of regularly performing plenty of sets and reps). This is why trained bodybuilders get a much bigger pump than Olympic lifters. Most advanced bodybuilders can add well over an inch to their arms by doing a few dozen close hand floor dips.

Another fact that has come to light and is the result of volume training is that the glycogen stored in the muscle can greatly increase. According to bodybuilding author Bill Dobbins whose knowledge is widely accepted, "Glycogen is carbohydrate energy stored in the muscles. For each gram of glycogen, the body will store 2.7 grams of water, all of which adds to muscle size and shape". This is why glycogen-starved bodybuilders who are on too low carbohydrate diet appear stringy and small. It also explains the usefulness of "carbing up "the day before an important contest (usually done by eating a plate of spaghetti or a baked potato).

Having given you the case for a workout consisting of plenty of sets and reps, now let’s assume that there is also a case to be made for power building techniques (as used to prepare for power lifting) on an occasional basis. Using heavy weights for lower repetitions cannot only act as a tonic, but can give the muscles a new dimension of experience. A change is as good as rest, many bodybuilders do occasionally employ heavy training as it improves the strength of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, among other things, and that is useful for achieving higher repetitions and upgrading training poundages when more regular workouts are resumed.

For the most part you should train with good exercise style, working your muscles over the fullest range possible. For instance, start your curls with straight arms; do not start with torso leaning forward, elbows bent, swinging the bar up. Cheating (loose training style) is a very sophisticated technique. You need to know how much to cheat and more importantly, when. Arnold Schwarzenegger made a habit of training in a very strict style for first eight reps, and then he would cheat more and more as he laboured through the last four reps. That way he got the benefit of both styles, but only after he had exhausted the benefits of doing eight quality repetitions in faultless exercise style.
